Why do people likes to seek revenge? Is it for them to finally take the justice? Is it because they want payment too? Or it is because they can't accept the truth?

On the other hand, people do things for themselves. They are doing such to gain power, to be satisfied, and to have the things they want.

Accept it or not, revenge is always at the back of those people who were once a victim. An evil revenge and a good revenge.

Looking at these people infront of me, they really want some revenge-- an evil revenge. Their eyes holds the resentment. What should I expect? Their son died because of me. They can't find my parents so they took me instead.

Even they will kill me now, my parents will never show up theirselves. Can't they see? I'm not important to them.

Mr. Salveja look at me with a smirked.

"We finally got you." he hold both sides of my cheeks using his right hand. I can feel the pain from how he holds me.

"Let's just wait for them."

"They will never show their faces, ever." After I stated that, he punches my face that cause me to stumble on the ground.

"They must." He gave a signal to his mens before they drag me to wherever it is.

JACE VENIZ POINT OF VIEW

I really want to scream and kill them right now.

I grow with the knowledge that killing is a bad thing. Master Henri taught us that there is a proper way to cage individuals who are doing devilish things in this world.

But how can I still not to think of killing them if right now, they got some of us? Especially Nathan.

I'm having a hunch that they got Nathan using Shelia. Yes, I know it is not good to point someone if I didn't saw it but her actions says it is!

Pero nandoon pa rin ang senaryong mas pinili niya si Shelia.

"JV, can you calm down?" Kuya Ire stops me from facing back and forth.

"How can I calm down Kuya?" I frustratingly sat down in the couch.

"Let Lynsea apply a medicine to your wounds first."

I sighed in defeat. Tinawagan kasi talaga siya ni Kuya Ire para gamutin lang ang mga sugat ko. Gabing gabi pa naman na, nakakahiya tuloy.

Habang ginagamot ako ni Ate Yssy ay namumutawi naman sa isipan ko ang mga nangyari kanina.

Hawak nila si Kuya Jemuel, si Jiyo, si Rhynne, Zia, at Shau.

Tulad ko ay hindi rin mapakali si Kuya Lemuel. The look he has right now is like he is ready to kill someone if they will hurt Kuya Jemuel.

Pero mas galit siya kanina nang mawalan ako ng malay gaya ng pagkakasalaysay sa akin ni Jackson.

Ngayon ay busy sila sa kanya-kanya nilang computer dahil hindi namin ma-contact si Master Henri.

Saktong tapos na akong gamutin ni Ate Yssy nang tumunog ang computer ni Jackson senyales na na-contact na si Master Henri.

Agad naman kaming lumapit ni Kuya Lemuel sa kanila ni Morana.

"Listen to me," pambungad nito pagkasagot ng tawag.

"I didn't know that it will come up like this. I gave a mission to Azriel and that is to find out the location of Salveja and Johnny at first. But a you know, Thana already found Johnny so I told Azriel to stop finding Johnny."

"What are you trying to say, Master Henri?" Hindi mapigilang tanong ko.

"Azriel is in Salveja's hand." Malutong akong napamura sa narinig ko.

"How about the others? I'm sure you know where they are too, right?" Segundang tanong ko. Tahimik lang sa tabi ko ang tatlo.

"I'm not sure if they are in Salveja's hand or not. But what worst is, maybe Johnny holds them right now. He knows your weakness, Thana."

I stayed quiet and let them talk to Master Henri.

It's my weakness that they aimed again. Why is it always my love ones? Can't the just get me and kill me instead? Why do they need to hurt me emotionally? If they can hurt me physically. For the best option, they can kill me right now if they want.

This is really a bullshit. They are aiming for my weaknesses and use them against me.

Hindi ko na napigilan pa ang magwala. Walang nagtangkang umawat sa akin hanggang sa napagod ako.

Gusto ko nang sumuko. Gustong gusto ko na pero ayoko. Ayokong iwan sila sa labang ako ang simula.

Kung susuko ako ngayon, paano na sila? Paano na ang mga mahal ko sa buhay? Ayoko. Ayokong sumuko. Hindi ako nabuhay para lang sumuko.

Si mama, hindi siya namatay na sumusuko sa laban ng buhay niya, nila ni papa, ng mga kaibigan niya.

Hanggang sa huling hininga niya, lumaban siya.

Kung ang ina ko ay hindi sumuko, ganoon din ako.

Pero paano kung napapagod na ako? Sa lahat ng ito? Pwede kayang magpahinga muna? O pwede kayang tumigil na? Dahil sa totoo lang, kahit sinasabi kong ayokong sumuko, pero ang puso ko, sukong suko na. Gusto na niyang tumigil.

"Tama na, JV."

"Papa..." Sambit ko at tuluyang nang tumulo ang mga luhang kanina ko pa pinipigilan.

"Nandito lang si Papa. Umiyak ka lang, hindi kita iiwan."

Pa, sukong suko na ako. Gusto ko nang tumigil. Pero ang mga ipinaglalaban ko, kailangan nila ako. Hindi ko sila kayang iwan, Pa.

Hindi matigil ang pag-iyak ko kaya hindi ko na din namalayan na nakatulog na pala ako sa bisig ni Papa.

Nagising ako sa pamilyar na kwarto. Ang dati kong kwarto dito sa bahay nila Kuya Ire.

Tatanungin ko na sana ang sarili ko kung bakit ako nandito nang bigla kong mahagip ang tama ko ng baril sa bewang.

Napalaban pala kami kahapon at nakuha nila sila Kuya Jemuel.

Nagngitngit agad ako sa galit pagka-isip ko pa lamang iyon. Babawiin namin kayo. Hintay lang Kuya.

Bumaba na ako pagkaraang natapos akong maligo.

Agad kong hinanap sina Rayne at Jackson. Kailangan naming pumunta sa headquarters ngayon.

Alam nila Papa na trabaho ko ito kaya hindi na nila ako pinigilan pa. Pero si Kuya Lemuel ay ayaw akong payagan. Kung maaring siya nalang daw ang hahanap sa kambal niya, gagawin niya. Pero alam nilang hindi niya iyon trabaho kaya sa huli ay pinayagan na din niya ako.

Alam kong ligtas sila doon sa puder nila Kuya Ire. Their subdivision is a private one and their house is secured by First Division. Gisele is helping my family as my late mother favored her before she died.

Mabilis kaming nagtungo sa opisina ni Master Henri pagkadating pa lamang namin. Ni hindi na namin nagawang ipinarada ng maayos ang kotse at motor na ginamit namin.

As a respect, I knocked three times before I opened the door.

"Master Henri," pantawag namin sa atensiyon niya.

"Sit down. I know your reasons why you came here." Yes, and it is to clear my questions and find them as soon as possible.

Hindi namin sila ma-track ng maayos dahil limitado lamang ang nakukuhang impormasyon ng computer at laptop sa bahay nila Kuya Ire. And the enemy can possibly hack the system because there is no any firewall that stops them to access the computer.

"Like what I've said yesterday night, Azriel's mission is to find Salveja and Johnny. And now, it's Salveja only. Though now, they finally caught him and I'm sure that he's not in the good hand. They want his parents and if they will not show their faces, Azriel will be the one to suffer."

"Then why did you gave him this goddamn mission?" Naaasar na saad ko.

"He also wants to do this mission. He wants to pay what his parents did."

No. Nathan, tell me you're not doing it. Tell me you will not sacrifice yourself just because of the sin of your parents.

You didn't kill him, Nathan. He died not because of you. He died because of the selfishness of your parents.

"Do you know his location, Master Henri? And the others?" Desperadong tanong ko sa kanya.

"I know where he is but to your friends, I still don't know. Nalaman ko lang ang location ni Azriel dahil sa tulong ni Gisele."

Lumabas na kami sa opisina niya at nagtungo na kami sa kanya-kanya naming quarters para hagilapin kung nasaan sina Shau.

I located one of their phones but it says the same. Nasa kalsada ang mga cellphone nila.

I tried many times and so as Morana and Shadow.

I'm trying to locate Zia's phone when mine suddenly rang.

Unknown number. Who is this?

I answered the call and signaled Morana to locate the caller. Hindi ako umimik nang sinagot ko ang tawag.

"Guess who?" Pwede kayang ipa assassinate ko nalang itong taong 'to sa Alpha Division? O as First Division nalang kaya?

"A bitch that looks like a witch but with horns?" Pang-uuyam ko dito. I bet her face looks like a bomb right now that any moment, it will explode.

"You bitch!" Ngitngit nito sa kabilang linya ng telepono.

"Yes, you bullfrog." Mas lalo ata siyang nainis dahil dinig ko ang pagbagsak ng mga bagay sa kinaroroonan niya.

"I don't think you can still talk to me like that if you'll find out my surprise." What is this bitch planning to do?

"Bye, Jace Veniz. Don't act so shock, okay? I know you are suspecting everyone of them before, and right now." And she ended the call.

Morana raised her hand and signed that she found where is that bitch. Me and Jackson immediately go towards her.

"Where?"

"She is in a private land owned by Salveja."
